OVERVIEW
Power as s is t ance for the braki ng s ys t em i s provided by a vacuum operat ed, non-act ive brake boos ter.
The brake boost er is a compact unit t hat occupi es les s s pace than a convent ional brake boos t er, improving t he vehi cl escras h performance charact eri st ics . The uni t is ins tall ed wi th t andem diaphragms that are 203.20 mm (8.00 in) and 228.60mm (9.00 in) i n diamet er and operate as a s ingle uni t.
The unit i s located on t he driver's si de of the engine compartment , and is s ealed t o t he bulkhead wit h a gas ket ands ecured wit h 4 s t uds and locki ng nuts . The brake boost er act uati ng pus h rod i s att ached t o t he brake pedal wit h a clevispin. The boost er out put rod l ocat es in the primary pis ton of t he brake mast er cyl inder.For addit ional informat ion, refer t o: Hydraulic Brake Actuati on (206-06 Hydraulic Brake Act uati on, Des cri pt ion andOperat ion).
VACUUM COMPONENTS
For bot h t he i6 gas oli ne and TD4 dies el engi nes , t he vacuum requi red for brake booster operati on is creat ed by a vacuumpump mount ed at the rear of t he cylinder head. The vacuum pump i s dri ven by the i ntake cams haft.
A rigi d plas ti c pipe connect s the vacuum pump t o a check valve ins t al led on the front chamber of t he brake boost er. Thepipe l engt h and rout ing is different for LHD and RHD model s.
The check valve mai ntains the vacuum neces s ary for brake boos t er operat ion and prevent s air from ent eri ng the frontchamber.

Convent ional bat teries los e t heir capacit y t o hold charge overt ime as t hei r int ernal l ead plat es st eadi ly det eri orate wit ht he cont inual vi brati on and eros ion t hat occurs wit h normal us e. The rate of det eri orati on depends on a number of fact ors ,including charge and di s charge cycling rat es . Therefore t he ext reme power cons umpti on of a Stop/St art s ys tem would havea det riment al effect on t he li fe-s pan of t his t ype of bat t ery.
To count eract the deeper dis charge and recharge cycl es of a Stop/St art s ys tem, a hi gh-performance batt ery bas ed onAbsorpti on Glas s Mat t echnology has been developed t o reduce batt ery det eri orati on caus ed by exces s ive us age. Thebatt ery owes i ts succes s t o t he ‘abs orbent glas s mat’ whi ch is a fi ne fi breglas s mat compres sed bet ween t he lead plat es.The ‘abs orbent gl ass mat’ als o abs orbs t he batt ery acid, enabling a more efficient us e of the cell ’s volume.
W hi le t he ‘abs orbent glas s mat ’ permit s t he electrol yte to funct ion normall y, i t also provides mechanical s upport for t helead pl at es , therefore reducing vi brat ion and s ubsequent degradat ion. Thi s t echnology s ubs t ant ial ly i ncreas es t he effect ivecharge and dis charge li fe of t he batt ery. The batt ery al s o has an extremely l ow int ernal res is t ance, res ult ing i n a quickerreacti on between acid and pl ate material.
Absorpti on glas s mat batt ery t echnology offers s everal advant ages :
The batt ery remains complet ely s pil l and leak proof due to the abs orpt ion of t he fi breglas s mat .In freezi ng condit ions , expanding flui d is unable to caus e any damage as the pl ates are packed i n fibreglas s mat s ;cons equent ly t here is virtual ly no pl at e movement .Vibrat ion or s hock does not damage t he batt ery.As electrolyt e is contai ned through t he acid i n t he mat , there is no need for bat t ery mai nt enance.
The batt ery's capaci ty is 80Ah, meani ng t he bat t ery i s theoret icall y capable of s upplying an 80 amp current for one hour. At ypi cal engi ne res t art wi ll draw a very hi gh current for a fract ion of a second, s o wi ll have very l it tl e impact on t he batt ery'st ot al st ate of charge. An engine res tart may typicall y cons ume about 0.001% of a new batt ery's full -charge capaci ty.
If a new batt ery is fit ted t o t he vehicle, the BMS (bat tery monit ori ng s ys t em) module wi ll requi re recal ibrat ing t o regi s tert he greater charge holding capaci ty of the bat tery, t his i s performed us ing Land Rover approved di agnos ti c equi pment.
